Scanning through port 135, incrementing the IP address by one each
time is pretty typical for this worm. But I'd use e.g. snort's
portscan detection to pull out the portscans and then do some analysis
with a perl script.
There's a lot of traffic out there and you don't want to be looking at
it by hand.
